Hello, I need some help solving an issue I keep running into on two of my boxes whenever I try to install FC3 on them, when it comes time to actually start the installation, it dies, if you hit ALT-F1 grab the console window and run top it appears that is the LVM program which is grabbing 99% of the CPU, I figured it was creating the filesystem so I let it run for about 30 minutes, no change, just sits there, the system is not hung up, I can do whatever I want to in the shell, its just that the installer is probably waiting for LVM to finish to go to the next step. The two boxes are of different architectures, one is a P4 1.7Ghz with 512M of Ram, the other is a AMD 64 3000+ with 1G of Ram. the only thing I can see that these two machines have in common is they both are running VIA chipsets. I have successfully installed this distro on my laptop which I dont think runs the VIA chipset. Fedora Core 2 will load fine on the P4 and I can upgrade to FC3 with no issues, not sure if FC2 is using LVM, and I have not tried to install FC2 on the AMD 64. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Chris..
